Re: Brakes

Team 229 has brakes,

They are drop down pads front and back that we lower when we get in a good shooting position, or when we are loading up. They originally started out with floor mat material on them (the stuff you put under office chairs on carpet), Then we tried them with Sorbethane (the stuff Beatty used in 2003), and now they have wedgetop on them. We found that all worked better in pushing matches than just our wheels.

I will search for pictures if you’re still interested.
